[@HerrBrandt]

A real brazilian metal hero! All my respect for Andreas.

[@josesinesiorodrigues6423]

Ooooopaaa!... Greetings from Brazil!

[@craigroaring]

Andeas Kisser was the most under-rated member of Sepultura. His leads added so much dimension the music.

[@ubbgn]

Not really!

[@benjamingalvez1119]

Uhm, no man hahaha, no way he is underrated, he is a fuckin’ beast

[@danielpaez4210]

Not really, even though he kicked out the main force and the leader, even though he and his wife kicked Sepultura's manager, even though he constantly refuses to tour back with the guys who created Sepultura, we know that Sepultura was so great because of Andreas contribution that was very important.

[@adrianarias6418]

Too bad he couldn't fucking choose a proper vocalist for Sepultura and destroyed the band.

[@Scadufax2001]

Very cool interview, Kisser seems like a very down to earth guy.

[@sesnaffaout9528]

I think Andreas stopped aging after 1996

[@LeoMessiGoat1986]

This man is an absolute LEGEND. So skilled, influential, and all in all a great, down to earth guy. Awesome vid.

[@MrThrashmetal13]

Andreas is the realest! respect, brother!

[@ayarsalazar]

Andreas is the Boss!!!!

[@ChirodipBasu25021994]

This channel is growing by the minute. Great job Sam, again !

[@Chuloloc]

Awesome. Hail Sepultura. Thank you, Banger TV.

[@MadChaos11]

very good guitar player

[@Black_marked]

Excellent interview, thanks!

[@gefersonhess291]

Sepultura appears twice in the chart at the beginning and I don't think it was a mistake.

[@metaldad79]

if you need another extreme band to get into from Brazil....check out Krisiun

[@CarlosEduardo-cw6yq]

Krisiun, Korzus, Violator, Sarcofago, Nervosa, Witch Hammer, Chakal, Dorsal Atlantica, Torture Squad, Amen Corner... and more, more..

[@HerrBrandt]

Project 46 is comming!

[@satanwest2923]

Nice interview, looking forward to the Sepultura lock horns tomorrow!!!!

[@KlrRaptoR]

Can nott wait for tomorrow!

[@MoodAmbient]

Great interview!

[@papaxud7199]

Obrigado por esclarecer Andreas... / thanks for clarifying...

[@chalinovargaz6495]

thank you, Sepultura!

andreas kept it real far as the roots of Brazil and ethnicity

[@mikemartell365]

Cool interview. I agree with what Andreas said regarding timing but it was more than that. That original line up was special and as a front man Max was a big shoe to fill. I saw them during their tour with Ministry and the power they had on stage was awesome to experience. As far as a name change that ship has sailed. Greene has been the singer of Sepultura longer than Max was. Cavalera Conspiracy is the closest we'll ever get to that sound again.

[@nicholasbonanato9317]

I like when people outside talks about our metal scene. Greetings o/

[@elduce7166]

Krisiun has released 11 records outside of Brazil, and are quite well known in North America and Europe. They did the Summer Slaughter tour 2 years ago here.

[@enzofernandes11]

Andreas allways awesome!!

[@noeuphoria1410]

damn. he's a very well spoken dude.

[@alexandreandrada3056]

Totally relate to the hating Brazil part. I'm Brazilian and I've always felt the place is really closed for different minded people.

[@wiltonribeiro616]

BRASIL PORRA

[@diegocardim5280]

MITO

[@andresouza8169]

o Brasil tem uma musicalidade muito forte. com o rock não deveria ser diferente. o país absorveu o que veio de fora e o fez da sua maneira. sepultura foi o grande expoente do rock undergorund brasileiro, mas tivemos muitas bandas dentro da cena punk/hardcore e dentro do metal extremo, como sarcofago, vulcano, dorsal atlantica, multilator, chakal, dentre outras. fizemos crossover e grindcore meio que naturalmente, quando bandas de hardocore começaram a fazer um som mais pesado e com influencias do metal.

[@alexsampaio3610]

O Andreas fala "you know" pra substituir o "meu" kskkskskkss

[@holtz000]

Seria mais um "tá ligado?".

[@asheriko26]

Love this guy. One of the best Metal guitar players ever.

[@benjamingalvez1119]

Drinking game: 1 sip every time Andreas says "you know"

[@fpsqt]

Think it's unfair to say Speultura is the only brazilian band that broke international success. I'd say Angra is a pretty well acknowledged band too.

[@gabrielnocera1]

Valeu Kisser

[@douglasrodrigues850]

Sam põe tradução aí nos vídeos.

[@nickolasgomes4280]

ANDREAS VC É MÁSSA DEMAIS

[@guillermo6066]

God bless Andreas Kisser

[@idearivm]

Real deal👊😎👊

[@erikmetalhead9191]

Liebe

[@eliallday532]

they were serval thrash bands that came out before sepultura released their album. one example vulcano

[@oreally8605]

Yeah but they SUCKED BIG TIME Sepultura was the only worthy band in 89- 96

[@ferdeleste]

🤘🏽🇦🇷 Sepultura es Andreas!..

[@SSantmyre94]

REUNITE!

[@homersimpson6615]

Tem que botar legendas em português nesse canal. Obrigado

[@devil8888_]

anyone care to tell me what's the brand of andreas' eye wear

[@AlecsonVeloso]

Nirvana isn't the one to blame for the decay of metal popularity. I blame MTV and its attempt to set pop trends worldwide.

[@craigroaring]

Also, i think that although nirvana and the grunge movement had a negative effect on thrash, it created an environment where new forms of extreme metal came to the forefront. Eg death metal, grind, black metal, industrial etc. Bad time for thrash, but a good time for experimental extreme metal.

[@MrCapone1996]

Alecson I agree, a lot of the 80s metal bands (e.g. Iron Maiden and Judas Priests) shot themselves in the foot. Like JP and IM got new singers which lost popularity for both bands. Maiden still made bad albums with Bruce in the 90s but JP's Painkiller was still good.

[@AlecsonVeloso]

There were good Metal bands coming up on the early 90s and veterans released great albuns as well, however MTV noticed the power they have gained and saw the Heavy Metal couldn't be a sellable product for the masses, so they thought: Lets replace it for something cheaper and polemic. Then Grunge was born.

[@hmpz36911]

Alecson It also reached a point where any ground-breaking became increasingly difficult, as creatively, metal had covered so much ground by then. Growth was becoming rarer, thus the stagnation bored some people. It took a while before "The Gothenburg Sound" hit The States too.

[@benjamingalvez1119]

the artist formally known as craig lastname so.... basically Death metal was created thanks to grunge.... wtf hahaha

[@brandonirizarry6380]

No people in his own words in his book max left on his own he states that he should taken his time and should have talked to the guys more period.

[@leandrooli7723]

Alguém coloca uma legenda em português, por favor!!

[@TheThefabulousman]

Angra plays sold out gigs and festivals in Mexico, Japan and all over Europe, Hibria recorded a live DVD in Japan, Krisiun and Nervosa aren't unknown to the metal audiences in North America and Europe, Almah played Progpower USA 2015, Andre Matos formed a finnish band with Timo Tolkki but yeah, sure, Sepultura is the only metal band to come out of Brazil.

[@CarlosEduardo-cw6yq]

Korzus is a great band too kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2ScqouelK59bLM

[@thesweyy5999]

They never said they were the only band; they just said they were the biggest.

[@ArthurBrum2015]

Not to mention Sarcófago which practically created the Black Metal along with oher bands.

[@moneshque]

The difference is that Sepultura where gods among men at his prime...they can easyly be named the best thrash metal band ever imo.

[@MrCapone1996]

The end was funny

[@DIERAPPER]

i saw dis band born in BR

[@oreally8605]

The only band Metallica feared.. The original Sepultura.

[@douglascage]

Man the only thing i don't understand,who left the band??Max and Igor, right?(look at the interviews,Max told a billion times,he regreted living sepultura)noboby kicked them out, that's it.Sepultura belongs to Andreas that's all folks.Max doesn't sing well anymore(and i understand, gutural voice is not easy) and doesn't play anymore.he has his own musicians.real Sepultura will never ever come back again.period.

[@alberths2279]

so... we have 2 seps! the cavalera brothers and andreas sep's, fuck! can we just enjoy the music?! please?!

[@LIVS10]

Why don't you guys talk about Angra, Shaman and other brazilian bands??

[@classecaotica1686]

O público internacional do Angra é nichado no Japão, eles não são tão conhecidos quanto o sepultura.

[@eriksenbriggs]

at 8:41 he says sixtyfart

[@StorageYT]

Scrolled down in the comments just to check if anyone else noticed. I feel like a child for laughing at this. :(

[@marciocoelho2481]

Krisiun, Angra and Nervosa anyone?

[@miguelcruz2682]

Funny how I use to think south America was of primitive way of living & were obscured in there technology low behold sepultura came with fierce vengeance Force of original metal!!🤘

[@danielpaez4210]

I will always respect Kisser for his contributions in Sepultura, he defined the sound of the band, his soloing is amazing, and he with the Cavaleras composed epic masterpieces, what I can't respect is the fact that he took advantage of a tragedy to betray who was his friend, kinda brother just to become the new leader of the business.

[@jonas6666]

I don't think he was taking advantage of Max, but it was a situation that was very very poorly conducted. They made bad choices from both sides, but I don't believe it was in bad intention

[@vaggknot]

You know

[@beetlesazer]

Kirk Hammet likes this. And Kirk hammet says: Nice fucking interview.

[@dkarisik987]

Who else agrees with Nirvana comment!? I think rap mixing with metal change it all

[@huwmorgan74]

I wonder what they would sound like if Wagner Moura Lamounier stayed with them.

[@DiegoFernandes-vv3qo]

"and then nirvana came" LOL

[@PorkChop304]

What is the question Sam meant to ask, but Andreas asked him not to?

[@BangerTV]

He was jokingly referring to "why is Sepultura the only metal band to make it from Brazil?" But he did end up giving a pretty great answer.

[@THernane]

BANGER On that subject, I know it is not the same but, isn't Krisiun a well known band outside Brazil? Now I'm curious.

[@kblooddragon]

There's Krisiun, there's Angra, now Nervosa is growing but no one is even close to the level of success Sepultura achieved.

[@MK-oz2lf]

I think there were Black Metal bands in the 80's who were even one of the first to wear corpse paint from Brazil according to Fenriz if I am not mistaken.

[@MoonOvIce]

The Electrocist Sarcófago maybe, but there were a bunch of black metal bands in the 80's and 90's in Brazil, Mystifyer is another one (the founder and leader is a black guy and I believe he claimed he started using corpse paint before the Norwegians).

[@BanjoSick]

Kisser is awesome! Really love the last 5 Sepultura albums. They developed into a Proggressive-Thrash Band with great concept albums (Dante, A-Lex, Mediator). Not a big fan of Roots, Against, Nation or Roarback.

[@alex_flamer267]

".....and then Nirvana came!" Hahahahaha!!

[@leeoslayer3190]

A true karaoke band..

[@angelicaschlitz9933]

"and then nirvana came"

[@kylegoodman5196]

So sick of all these haters saying that Sepultura isn't Sepultura without Max and Igor. Yes those two guys played a huge part in the band, but when they first recorded Bestial Devastation they didn't know how to tune their guitars and were reading out of a dictionary to create lyrics. When Andreas arrived they finally learned how to write songs and English lyrics so they could have real international appeal. While Sepultura kept on evolving their sound and trying to stay fresh (sometimes I agree they tried to change it too much, on albums like Against and A-Lex), Max basically kept playing Roots over and over again on the first three Soulfly albums and then has settled into the same thrash/groove stuff ever since the Prophecy album. Sepultura has always tried to stay different. Max keeps things the same. Sepultura is definitely not Max and Igor. Never has and never will be.

[@shapereinhardt3151]

This guy look like abbath

[@onewheelstreetmonster7428]

“And then Nirvana came”

[@ronaldlucas8325]

Andreas' accent sounds like italian haha

[@reganteresa1662]

lol vaccination... speaking of metal

[@rifkihaq1510]

he said you know more than 100 times.. i think kisser is infected by you know disease

[@brianpiotrowski792]

New sep it's terrible

[@jeremiahbear175]

And then Nirvana came, lol

[@demerjr8097]

Sepultura died in 1996, move on

[@DaPoopIsInDaPudding]

Euro I like both timeframes and singers. It’s you that should move on.

[@kotanovakota]

Die my ass more like reborned

[@oreally8605]

@@kotanovakota Dead as a doornail

[@_pulyx]

Sepultura doesn't exist anymore. Not without Max or Igor. There isn't a shred of sepultura left. It doesn't sound like sepultura at all. Just change the name guys, it might help you. Expectations can ruin anything. Expecting Sepultura, and listening to what it's currently being released, leads to disappointment. If it's called something else, expectations are reset.

[@Jermusicislife84]

I completely agree with you 100%. Have you heard Cavalera Conspiracy? Max and Igor back together is awesome

[@eliaskaos202]

bla bla

[@ashtonstevens730]

Paulo Brasil I 100% Agree with you! This band that they have is good but it's NOT Sepultura I saw them 10 times before 96 and it was amazing! Fuck Andreas and Paulo! Give the trademark back to the family that deserves it. If you called it something else I might support you but never while you hold the CAVALERAS away from there brainchild. Everyone support CAVALERA CONSPIRACY AND THE RETURN TO ROOTS TOUR!

[@carlossantini4592]

Paulo Brasil - Sepultura Will always bear the name Sepultura as long as the band continues. If you're judging a band solely by its name, you've got issues.

[@Jermusicislife84]

ABSO-FUCKIN'-LUETLEY! Andreas should quit using "Sepultura" and just rename the damn band. Sepultura is dead. Same feeling with Pantera, Dime and Vinnie formed Damageplan when Phil was being a dick.

[@dkarisik987]

Who else agrees with Nirvana comment!? I think rap mixing with metal change it all
